Imams From Around The World Have Shared Advice On How Muslims Should Respond To The Muhammad Cartoons -1GOT NEWS
“The Prophet faced many great challenges but he exhibited impeccable beauty of character in his actions. He did not react inhumanely or violently.”
Muslim leaders from Britain and around the world have shared an open letter on the website of the Muslim Council of Britain and MuslimMatters.org giving advice to Muslims about how to respond to depictions of their prophet, Muhammad.
The letter comes in the wake of last week's terrorist attack on the offices of the French magazine Charlie Hebdo, and subsequent reprinting of that magazine's cartoons of Muhammad in the world's media.
Most Muslims will inevitably be hurt, offended and upset by the republication of the cartoons. But our reaction must be a reflection of the teachings of the gentle and merciful character of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Enduring patience, tolerance, gentleness and mercy as was the character of our beloved Prophet (peace and Blessings be upon him) is the best and immediate way to respond. With dignified nobility we must be restrained, as the Qur'an says "And when the ignorant speak to them, they say words of Peace."
Signatories such as the popular Australian Imam Yahya Adel Ibrahim have shared the guidelines on Facebook, receiving thousands of shares.
